The fool likes us.
The share price of gold miner Centamin (LSE: CEY) has more than halved since this time last year. It’s been the victim of two common risks that can dent such a stock. Namely, a weakening of the price of gold and an operational setback.
However, I can see two reasons for optimism right now. First, continuing massive money printing by governments should be supportive of the gold price. Second, Centamin appears to have stabilised operations.
It reiterated its production and costs guidance for 2021 in a report on 22 July. I reckon further positive noises in its half-year results on 5 August could see returning investor interest in the stock.
